Thursday, February 13 | 6:30 pm | Museum Admission

Did you  know that abolitionist Frederick Douglass chose Valentine Day’s as the day to celebrate his birthday, as his birthdate was unknown to him as an enslaved person? Celebrate the strength of Black love with storytellers of  The Short Kuts Show, tracing its roots through the hardships of slavery, segregation, and systemic racism. This show highlights how love—whether from a partner, family, or community—has been a source of resilience, strength, and healing, playing a crucial role in overcoming trauma and oppression.
